about

Blockhead is a legend whose work I’ve loved since I heard “Daylight” in high school. The work he’s done in the years since has been legendary, and it’s an honor to work with him.

lyrics

We were rappin round a handle like baggage claim tags
Scenic route to success, passin palisade crags
Starin at the summit wearin plummets on our rib cages
Stuck against rubble blowing kisses at the cliff faces
Flicked casings in the crossfire, charred fibers
Melted into the flesh of instrumentals like scar liner
Lost ciphers decoded, motives remain hidden
Brake-clipping, and the stars swirlin as the Wraith spinnin
Hittin eighth in the order, crowd the plate with my aura
Barely safe, middle finger tripped the base at the corner
From the crates I was born to keep tricks up the vinyl sleeve
Seen nothing worded this way like a silent v
Ultraviolet seeds beam brighter under scorched turf
Scored first blood cuttin grooves into cored earth
Plucking futures out the firmament with tweezers
Since the lab days when crew kept burners next to beakers

Half my team's from Rome, other from Pompeii
Short trips from spring chicken to entree
Write from the top of the bottom like Dante
Guess I had to learn gravity the hard way

Warm breeze of hot air hugged my winded face.
Muscle memory outta shapethese are different weights.
Ate words when I was starved for attention
from a god in ascendance to the bottom of dependence.
Kept cool like a Freon leak. Down, up, up, down,
the metronome was a seesaw's creak.
Lowkey offbeat sharpest senses pressed flat.
Minor problems scaled major, noted where my breaths tracked.
In plain EnglishI measured proof by the wrong angles.
Plastic facade torn to smoke like cigar labels.
Crossed cables, mixed messages and metaphors.
Got everything off of my chest except this xenomorph.
Nevermore Park helmet is over my daughter's crown,
goggles got her spotting pits she can crawl around.
Still the master of the wince and the scowl
til she climbs to the peak of her crib with a smile.
